• As we count down to The Good Life Show, we’re sharing a few delicious teasers to give you a flavour of what’s to come. First up: this vibrant mango berry paradise pie from the legendary Dr. Aris Latham – often called the father of gourmet ethical raw cuisine.

    Packed with sun-ripened fruits and free from refined sugar or heat, this pie is a celebration of nature’s sweetness and simplicity. It’s fresh, it’s feel-good and it’s 100% Sunfired – Dr. Aris’ signature take on raw living that’s as nourishing as it is beautiful.

    If this is your kind of dessert (and trust us, it will be), then you’re going to love what’s waiting at this year’s show.
